Time taken: 5 minutes

Donate it as food. or diapers.

Time required: 1-2 hours to pack some boxes into the boot and head to nearest dropoff area (listed below for your convenience).

100,000 displaced people to feed is no joke. If you imagine each person eating 3 servings a day, that’s ALOT of food. Thankfully, it’s christmas and we’re assuming there’s been alot of gifting, and many parties held. This also probably means loads of leftover food and drink.

Also, some families often switch to healthier diets, which leaves a cache of instant noodles and unhealthy snacks abound. We’re sure someone up north is dying for a potato chip, so donate away your guilt!

Here’s what else they need besides food n water: Gas cookers, Blankets, diapers, Sanitary Pads, Toilet paper

Many companies are already chipping in (like Tesco, Fireflyz and CIMB). Those are the articles you should be sharing peepur!

Here’s a handy list of all the drop off points we could gather from the internet. Due to shortage of time, we covered mostly Klang Valley. If anyone knows of anymore… please highlight them in the comments below.
